Hi,

Im looking for a new resonator to replace my 1976 OMI.
Beard, Scheerhorn or other in the price range of 1000->2000$

Preferably a open soundwell construction.

Anyone have one for sale?

I live in sweden but i have friends visiting NYC in a couple of weeks who could help me get it to me.

Otherwise i hope someone is willing to ship a reso overseas.
Also interested in trading my OMI.

Best,
Petter

To clarify: I'm aware that true Scheerhorns start at 5000$ I was referring to the wechter scheerhorn or similar.

Hi Petter,

Just for clarification, do you mean "open soundwell" or "open body".

You can buy a _new_ Beard "Vintage R" (open soundwell) at the top of your price range. The Wechter's are baffled "open body" guitars for considerably less.

cheers

Hello Beard,

It seems like im a bit confused myself. So ill just say that i'm looking for a more modern and crisp tone in my new resonator.

From what i understand this means a soundpost/baffle construction. (your E model?)

Seems like i mixed up open soundwell and open body as you pointed out.

best

Yes Petter,

In our case that would be the "E", the Mike Auldridge Signature, The Jerry Douglas Signature and the Odyssey.

Good luck in your search Smile
